Jae Crowder quotes

I think it's just two teams playing hard and there's a lot of guys on their end that play hard, play nasty, play feisty, and I think we have some guys like that. Two teams like that come together, you have little situations and encounters but I think it's just two teams playing hard.feedback

It takes a lot. But with him knowing that all the guys on the court have his back, he's able to do what he does best, which is pressure the ball. And we just try to help him out as much as possible. It takes a lot from a guy like him to guard Jimmy the whole game and make him work. We just want to make [Butler] work as much as possible. I think we've done a great job thus far.feedback

He's gonna have a busy 24 hours. He's shown he can overcome a lot. We're his family, he's going to be with his family, so I think he'll be able to bounce back. But we know he's going through a lot, and he wants us to prepare, and that's what we're gonna do. We're gonna prepare and, when he gets back, he said he'll be ready to go.feedback

To me personally, it was everything. It was just a little motivation speech. (Garnett) said we looked like a team that wasn't having fun. We looked like a team that (wasn't) soaking in the moment. We just needed to play for one another, and play for the moment which is at hand being in the playoffs and have fun with it. He basically said put a little more KG into it.feedback

It was on the phone, but we put it on a Beats pill [speaker], we played it very loud in here. With him talking loud, you can only imagine how it got us pumped up. He was excited, we were excited. It was a great speech just for us to let go and have fun.feedback

To me, personally, it was everything. It was just a little motivational speech. He said we looked like a team that wasn't having fun. We looked like a team that wasn't soaking the moment. We've just got to play for one another and play for the moment at hand, which is the playoffs, and have fun with it. Basically that's all he was saying, with a little more KG into it.feedback

It's not an ideal situation for us. You don't put yourself down 0-2 at home. But it's not the end of the world for us. We have the unit to go to Chicago and take Game 3. It's not ideal, but we feel like we can bounce back.feedback

It was a little awkward for us. But we tried to put that behind us and fight for him. But it was a little off. Because you wanted to talk to him, but you really can't talk to him because he's not talkative right now. He's just fighting through some adversity. And that's understandable.feedback

I think a lot of teams in the past were happy to be in the playoffs. We've got a much different feeling in the locker room. Playing on those teams, it's just a much different mentality. Everybody wants to actually win.feedback

We for sure congratulated each other on a good season. Don't let that get twisted. But we know we have a bigger picture ahead of us so we just congratulated each other and told each other we know the season that's ahead. Good work this year, and we've got a lot more work to do.feedback

Both teams, you could say we don't like each other a little bit. There's probably a little bitterness in there, but it's a good old-fashioned battle. It'd be a great one. I'm sure it'd be a great playoff battle between these two teams, but who knows what could happen? If it comes down to it, it'd be a good one.feedback

[Wittman] was saying something about me being soft, and bleep, bleep, bleep. I feel like he was getting away with a lot of curse words and inappropriate words to me, and I retaliated and I got hit [with the technical].feedback

We should have put the game away a long time ago and they came down and executed and tied the game. Miscommunication on my end. I should have threw the ball into IT probably a little earlier. I put him in a bad situation and we lost the game.feedback

It's very frustrating. He's a great scorer in this league. We threw a lot of different looks at him and he came off a lot of pick-and-rolls and basically having his way with us for the past two games.feedback

We're humble enough to know that we haven't played well at home, and we want to give our home crowd a better outing than we did the past two games. We're right there where we want to be, we're locked in.feedback

We'll watch film and try to adjust to it and give him a different look, obviously. He got comfortable with what we were doing on the defensive end and he had his way. So we've got to switch it up and come with a different game plan.feedback

Everybody on the court was aware of where he was at. You can't expect him to go for 50 every night. But that wasn't the game. The game was them attacking us on both ends, they put us on our heels.feedback

I wanted him to smile a little bit more. I don't think he cracked a smile. But it showed a little bit about what he's about. Because he's just going to keep playing no matter what. He's a fighter, man. I'm sure he'll get it fixed, but I just wanted him to smile just to show it off a little bit.feedback

If you don't stand up to it, those guys will punk you. So you've got to step up to the challenge a little bit and be ready to compete at a high level because those guys are going to bring it. It's all basketball. They just play the game at a different level than a lot of teams so you just have to respect it. I do as an opponent. I respect them as an opponent.feedback

I'm sure y'all are gonna be replaying that [video] a lot in the next 24 hours. Emotions took over. A lot was going on that game. It cost me a lot of money. I regret it. But just the emotions of it; it was a very emotional game for us. There was some bickering going back and forth the whole game and it just led into that. But I moved on from it.feedback

Two teams playing hard. That's all I'm gonna say. I don't know if it's bad blood. I think those guys play very, very hard and we do as well. So you get that and you play each other so many times, you kind of ask for bad blood you play a team four times in one season. I just think it was two teams playing hard.feedback

As commander-in-chief, I have no greater responsibility than leading our men and women in uniform; I have no more solemn obligation sending them into harm's way. I think about this every time I approve an operation as president. Every time, as a husband and father, that I sign a condolence letter. Every time Michelle and I sit at the bedside of a wounded warrior or grieve and hug members of a Gold Star Family.

I was running down the stairs in heels with a cup of coffee in hand, I was talking over my shoulder and my heel caught and I fell backwards. I tried to get up and it really hurt. I've broken my toe. I've received excellent care from your excellent health service.
